They'll celebrate their tenth anniversary this year, and it seems Shakira and her fiancé Antonio de la Rua are just as in love as ever.

The couple were the picture of bliss as they strolled the beach in Punta Del Este, Uruguay, close to where the Columbian singer owns a ranch.

But despite their happiness together, the pair have no immediate plans to tie the knot.

Antonio, the son of former Argentine Prime Minister Fernando de la Rua, proposed in 2001. It was reported they would marry in 2007 at the property Shakira owns in the Dominican Republic, but the ceremony never happened.

The couple were then hit with contrasting reports they had split or had secretly wed. but Shakira put the record straight on Twitter last September.

"We are neither married nor fighting. We are very together and very good. 9 years!" she wrote.
